Nothing is so painful to the human mind as a great and sudden change. The sun might shine or the clouds might lour but nothing could appear to me as it had done the day before.

Like one who on a lonely road
Doth walk in fear and dread
And having once turned round walks on
And turns no more his head
Because he knows a frightful fiend
Doth close behind him tread.
Coleridges Ancient Mariner.
